New Zealand Fine Wine Case

Zesty, smart and refreshing sauvignon from two Marlborough legends: Ivan Sutherland and James Healy. This is full of life and the perfect palate pick-me-up, with notes of lemon and a hint of gooseberry on the nose and a fresh, focused and grippy apple and lemon-laden palate.

A prime example of the fresh, red-fruited and delicately floral pinot which is done so well in Marlborough, New Zealand. Made for us by icon of the region, Ben Glover, this is an elegant Chambolle-esque pinot, with crushed strawberry, cherry and rose-petal notes on the nose. The palate is crunchy, energetic and lifted.

A barrel-fermented New Zealand chardonnay of great freshness as well as breadth on the palate. Amped Chardonnay has a hint of struck match on the nose for extra complexity, and lovely flavours of white fruit joined by savoury toasty notes.

A wonderful advertisement for barrel-fermented New Zealand sauvignon, bringing a nutty, herbal and buttery quality to the aromas alongside the fresh stone fruit. The palate balances roundness and crispness, offering flavours of apple pie, thyme and citrus.

Ben Glover and Liam Steevenson MW opted for Central Otago fruit for their Spoke project pinot noir and it's easy to see why when you taste this.! The nose shows cherry, cedar and rose-petal notes, with an attractive savoury complexity. The palate has concentrated fruit but delicious mouthwatering acidity. Perfectly balanced

Michael Brajkovich MW was recognised by the Insititute of Masters of Wine as chardonnay winemaker of the year, and with wines like this it is easy to see why. His Kumeu River chardonnays are world renowned, and this appley, flinty, bright and elegant 2022 was a surefire Champion, earning plaudits for its ‘tension, precision and minerality.`
